    HP and Torque ???

    That would be interesting. It might give an idea of how much power is being consumed by the drivetrain. I'm pretty sure my deuce is urned up enough. It gives just a little smoke on a flat at 55MPH WOT and the pyro is at 1100 and boost at 9. Turning it up this much BTW makes it very easy to...

    Other State Defense Force guys using their deuces "for the cause"?

    Might as well tell about it, we can compare SDF and learn from this. Texas SDF is under the TX Adjutant General and the Governor is the commander. TX may have certain rights WRT armies, I think it still keeps the right to have its own army. Military in Texas, except for federal troops like...

    Big dude Fit in a m35?

    the thin-backed simple box seat is best for clearance issues. The back cusion (such as it is) compresses to almost nothing behind your back. I think it's only there to prevent contact with metal. I don't know what sizes of wheel fit a deuce, but going 1-2" smaller wouldn't hurt. Anyone know what...

    12v- 24v question

    I can't address generators because I have not done them, but that's a good option. Here's what I did with a battery equalizer and have had no problem. There are notes and wiring diagrams to help. The article goes into more detail than most for adding 12/24V power, so it should be sufficient to...

    avatars - getting the most out of them

    No, that's some unknown cat from the internet biting the @#$%! out of some female's arm. I've met very few, even feral ones, that would go to that extent (biting a whole arm) out of fear. She must have made that one really really mad (check the face!) - and is getting what she deserves! 10...

    Forty Below Zero Deuce

    I finally opened the valves to the heater core.. but it warmed up gain to 65 degrees so I don't need the heater much. I don't move out till the engine's at 120, and don't get on the highway till it's at 160. The cold weather kit "bra" is aomething I don't really need here, and having to take it...

    You do not have the laser component of the rangefinder? It is an interesting item as well.

    Preserving Engine Life Expectancy

    5 microns is why I went with Ethan's (Builder77's) kit may he RIP, and if I had to do it again, would go with a low-micron kit especially in TX where it is not too dang cold. An advantage that is good to add to a low-micron filter is high flow capacity. The capacity for instance of each of the...

    11.00x20 dual wheel question

    That's my setup and now a couple years later no problems and thousands of miles. I run 60MPH and have 6500LBS in the bed and I go offroad. Pressure is kept to at least 40 at all times, and generally 60 for on-road use. 11.00x20 have higher pressure ratings and much higher load ratings.

    M105 camper the start

    Very cool. Folding chairs bunks etc can help make the most of it. If you do put in an A/C, be sure it is tilted slightly backward so the condensate will run out the drain and not into the trailer.

    TX Veterans Day Parades - Dallas and Richardson

    Veterans Day 2008 - Richardson TX. (somehow my dad forgot to get us signed up for 2007. Dabtl, did that guy ever show up? I don't care about what politicians want.. even less so now.) The Richardson parade is very small, much too small for the size of the city. In fact it is only 1/4 mile long...

    I renamed a test image from .jpg to .jpeg and it went well that way. For now why not do that?

    picture post test

    You may have a point there on dialup. The site is rich in appearance and content so it's alot of code coming over that modem. Even so, each page should load in only a few seconds. Perhaps your connection was not runing at top speed momentarily, or some other problem prevented your picture from...
